way to achieve it.

as far as I see they will only be generated from page variables, ever

the fact that this is so does not negate the possiblity to have a table 
generated from which to select a subset

Are you suggesting I edit the jsp file after it is generated or intercept the

short run, of course, but goes against my understanding of MDA (once the page 
is edited, I'm obliged to re-edit it every time I change that part of the 
model, no?)

Yes, you should not expect a cartridge to be able to generate everything you 
can imagine. Like I said: there is a JIRA issue for it, this means that 
eventually I will implement support for it, I just haven't gotten to it.



What I can do short-term is support it in specific cases, but trust me: it is 
not evident to add this kind of support for all modeling cases, besides the 
fact it needs to be implemented I also need to take user-friendlyness and 
modeling into account, it needs to be an intuitive feature.



So let's say: you can submit multiple rows (selected via checkboxes) and have 
the values of a specific column sent to the server (most of the time you'll 
want to use the id, but you'll never be able to sent column values where the 
fields are rendered as input fields)
